Books with title Eyewitness Guides Jungle

This book on castles transports readers back to the world of medieval fortifications to meet the people who built them and lived inside them. Readers explore the first earth-and-timber castles, take part in a siege, watch the community of lords and ladies, jesters, pages going about their daily lives - even peek into the Great Hall and deep down into the dungeons. The striking photography and well-researched, fact-packed text of this series has captivated young and older readers alike, and established the "Eyewitness Guides" series as the perfect way to learn.

Part of a series of reference books that give detailed information on a wide variety of subjects and interests. This book is a visual guide to the evolution, behaviour and role in civilization of all members of the horse family. The book traces the development of horses from when they were odd-looking, striped, horse-like creatures with toes rather than hooves millions of years ago in North America and Europe. Horses covered include herds of wild mustangs or zebras as well as a representative collection of all the major international breeds of the domestic horse.

This volume tells the story of how castles were built, how masons managed to construct massive curtain walls and tall stone towers without the benefits of modern technology. A castle was more than a building to attack and defend. It was a whole community, designed to be self-sufficient in times of siege. The book also tells the story of the many people who lived inside castles. Part of the "Collins Eyewitness Guides" series, the book features step-by-step annotations which explain the illustrations. It is suitable for school projects.
